So the Doc sends in this story, beautifully illustrating the degree to which liberal governance is parting ways with the rule of law, with the question

What would happen if the Republicans just decided not to show up for the rest of the session? There’s really no point…

Confucius doubts he can improve on Rob Long’s splenetic explosion over at Ricochet:

What spineless toads! What useless bags of bones! What inspirations of cowardice and feckless do-nothingism! Irrelevant, pompous, lazy, crooked, dishonest, shiftless lumps of animal turd! May they suffocate in their own sloth and flatulence! Thieves, each and every one of them. Frauds and mice, the 215 Democrats who voted for this criminally negligent piece of non-legislation. The entire sick, decrepit, on-the-take, creepy lot of them — the human oil spill that is the Democratic House Majority — should crawl on their scaly, reptillian bellies and beg forgiveness for their derelict, chicken-hearted shirking of the one damn thing they’re supposed to do! And we shouldn’t give it to them. No. Never. Never. Never. Never. Never. They’re a craven, appalling, inexcusable insult to all Americans who do their jobs and pay their taxes. And especially to the men and women in uniform who do theirs.

If the Founders came back today, two hundred thirty-four years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and got a look at the Democratic House Leadership, they’d throw up and never stop.

Ay-yup.
